Quadrupole based Atmospheric Pressure Ionization Mass Spectrometry (APIMS) ,has been the Research and Industrial standard for on-line detection of very low level components of gas mixtures for over twenty years. APIMS system can routinely monitor components at the parts per billion (ppb) and parts per trillion (ppt) level in real time. Quadrupole based APIMS system can monitor a wide range of gases and gas mixtures and have the stability to provide the long term repeatability required in most applications.
Our current APIMS system is a third generation instrument with a wide range of options that allow you to customize it to your application.
The flexibility and precision of our systems permits you to focus the instrument on the specific gases of your application. It also allows you to go beyond simple process monitoring to do process trouble shooting and fundamental research.
The APIMS system uses our proven, reliable DC Corona Discharge source. The DC Corona Discharge Source is a chemical, or soft ionization source that is ideal for monitoring molecules. This source has an additional Electron Impact (EI) filament for Residual Gas Analysis and system trouble shooting.
We use a single, high signal transmission, 19 mm (3/4 inch) rod quadrupole mass filter with and RF only pre-filter to provide the highest possible sensitivity for most applications. We can configure systems with a triple quadrupole mass filter to provide APIMS / MS capabilities for Research and Extremely demanding applications
The Extrel CMS APIMS system uses the flexible and easy to use Merlin Automation Data System Controller and Software Package for system operation and data collection. This is a Windows 2000/XP based package that can be run from a PC. This allows for high speed data acquisition, powerful data processing and Library Search.
